Thanks. I did not know that. I am having trouble even finding a tank of hydrogen and prices on hydrogen. Then, there is the problem of purity. I don't know what category of purity one should have or if it's important for this purpose.

I look forward to your reagent test results. I'm not a chemist, I just read comments from people doing this and they claim that temperature is a variable. Some people claim you have to put it in the freezer, some people use hot water. Time is another variable. I see bubbles so I know hydrogen...

It doesn't have to be custom (super-expensive) adapters (around $100) are widely available. Many conversion kits to let you attach a SodaStream proprietary connector to a CGA connector. I agree on the hassle part though and without a meter to test, I'd wonder about the results. I suppose...

Thank you for your response. I would find a gas method more convenient because it would be on-demand not something I have to make ahead of time. Have you used a SodaStream? Psstt and you've charged a bottle of water. There are commercial vending machine water chargers in Japan that use hydrogen...

Also: Given that: C02 charged water is acidic. What happens if you just add some magnesium oxide powder (common supplement available in bulk) to the bottle, add water, charge with C02 and cap. Is hydrogen produced? Or put a magnesium rod in before charging? I don't have the testing...

Given this: There's a way (common, search SodaStream hack*) to refill a SodaStream C02 tank with C02 from a less expensive source than by exchanging the SodaStream (brand) bottles. You can also add a different attachment to run your SodaStream from a standard C02 tank (CGA.) Then: What happens...
